Helping People and Teams Go Beyond Business as Usual

By Mastering the Human Operating System

OUR WORK

The basis for our work is helping people gain a higher mastery over something we call the Human Operating system. The name refers to how our neural system influences how we respond to things we take in through our senses. From the time we are born, this human operating system constructs default operating paths based on our individual experiences. These defaults heavily influence how we listen, speak, and move our bodies. They also shape the decisions we make and how we lead. Most of the time, they serve us well, but there are also times when they don't. 

​​

Our work focuses on creating awareness of these default tendencies and helping people develop the ability to generate a unique response when they want their future to be something different from a repeat of the past. Following default tendencies leads to what we call business as usual. We help leaders enable people and teams to go beyond business as usual.

Dick Haab

Dick started his career as a chemical engineer at Dow Chemical. He quickly became sought by other companies for his impressive turnaround capabilities. At one point, he worked with chip development teams at Intel, where the team leaders had PhDs in neurophysiology. Dick used the nervous system knowledge and insights he gained from them to enhance his own insights and helped Intel and other companies improve their communication, leadership, and performance. He started his own company called the Performance Leadership Group and, through word of mouth only, his business grew and took him to some of the country’s most respected companies.
